We have tried numerous types of food in the supposed better option brands, BUT, Maggie, our 5 year old Siamese would be sick basically everyday sometimes multiple times, after eating... Until we tried this one a few years ago. I have tried to cheap out with other kibble a couple times... I'll just say, My bad, and apologies to her Highness. Point taken,.lesson learned. Her pals, Figaro and Tink (who are both Menace's! to society..but her loyal companions, Also seem satisfied with this ruling.

Cats love these

Our vet recommended Iams to us years ago. Three strays and two adoptees later, I can tell you that cats eating Iams dont need pricey foo-foo food or supplements

Our vet recommended Iams to us years ago. Three strays and two adoptees later, I can tell you that cats eating Iams dont need pricey foo-foo food or supplements. Feed them this, and watch them build muscle, develop silky, shiny and soft coats, and have tons of energy to play. Oh, and the the three strays lived until 18, 19, and 20. Can’t get them to eat anything but the regular chicken, though!

The consistency

We’ve been buying this product for years, the Cats are just outside killers, but they come in every morning for a snack of wet cat food and then head downstairs

We’ve been buying this product for years, the Cats are just outside killers, but they come in every morning for a snack of wet cat food and then head downstairs for the dry food, they let us know if the food dish is getting low, there poops are solid, plus if you buy decent quality food, they don’t eat constantly

EXCELLENT!!

This is our first time ordering from Chewy. We live in a rural area and it is hard to find Iam's cat food at the store or the IFA. When we do, it is either not big

This is our first time ordering from Chewy. We live in a rural area and it is hard to find Iam's cat food at the store or the IFA. When we do, it is either not big enough and /or too expensive. We buy 3-16 lb bags once a month. It costs us $85. Being retired, our money is budgeted very tightly. If we can't find any, we have to drive 60 mi to get it. Chewy has been an excellent choice for us. We bought 4-22 lb bags for $100!!!! It was delivered in 2 days like they said it would be for FREE!!! The auto delivery is great too because we can adjust how much we will need BEFORE it will be sent. This will save us money, time and stress!!! Our cats are our lives and I just want to thank you so much!! We have seven cats.

Dependable

The “kids” and I love Chewy. I have only one request but I understand why it can’t be granted. I wish my larger orders could be broken up into two smaller boxes

The “kids” and I love Chewy. I have only one request but I understand why it can’t be granted. I wish my larger orders could be broken up into two smaller boxes rather than one heavy box. I’m old and drop off point is f@r from the house. I’ll work on splitting it into two separate orders without losing the free shipping. I love your customer service. Hope you pay them well.

Support for Chewy

Some ustomers don’t seem to understand that Chewy does not manufacture the pet food. Saying they will never order from Chewy because a formula changed doesn’t make

Some ustomers don’t seem to understand that Chewy does not manufacture the pet food. Saying they will never order from Chewy because a formula changed doesn’t make sense. Take it up with the manufacturer. I have two large dogs and one 14 year old rescue cat. Our other rescue Kitty (Buddy, 16 years) passed away from cancer on June 14th of this year. The cats have been very happy with Iams dry food and great service from Chewy. Their customer service employees are wonderful. Thanks

Heavy packaging

We know our kitties love this food and I was happy to get it in the largest size bag for them. BUT... Chewey packed a 40 lb litter AND this food all in one large

We know our kitties love this food and I was happy to get it in the largest size bag for them. BUT... Chewey packed a 40 lb litter AND this food all in one large box! The box was obviously breaking from the weight of the contents and the insufficient tape. And the poor driver had to walk that heavy of a package all the way up the stairs, for which I was super grateful, but for him? I thought that was too much to ask. So, maybe putting them in the same box is cheaper shipping, but very inconvenient and even difficult to get into the house all at once. :/ Bummer...

Love my cats

I have 6 rescued cats that I have had since they were small kittens. They have all been spayed & neutered & I feed them the food they like & I think is best for

I have 6 rescued cats that I have had since they were small kittens. They have all been spayed & neutered & I feed them the food they like & I think is best for them. They seem to love the Iams food best over other brands I have tried. They are all healthy & loving cats. 3 of them are over 18 yrs old, 1 is 11 yrs old, one is 7 yrs old & our newest addition is 9 mo old. Without Chewy.com & Iams cat food, I don`t know what I would do. We live in the country & far from easy shopping. I love my cats & try to take the best care of them that I can.
